Exactly! The 5649th guitar made in October '78. It's an Ibanez Artist 2622 in antique violin. Probably worth at least R5K in good condition.

Man, what I would give to have an Ibanez Iceman from that era...

The first thing that came to mind is the idiot who sold it to the pawn shop. I know money can be tight, but the owner could've get at least 5times more (If the value is R5k and assuming he sold it to the pawn shop for more or less R600) if sold on Gumtree or in the Junkmail. Very beautiful guitar, good find.
